That Spy Monkey Creations set Uki mentioned also included a crossbow weapon and a fly swatter, no doubt inspired by the episodes "Diamond Ray of Disappearance" and "Dree-Elle's Return".

Aha, see, I do have some memory left Thanks for the link RocketPunch. The way I see it now, there is no excuse for not doing a Green Trap Jaw in MotUC. Mini comic fans will go nuts for it AND if you include some extra accesories for his mechanical arm (which could also be used on the 'regular' TJ) we are all in for a treat! Let's go Green TJ!

Edit: now that I think about it: a Green TJ would probably have a more silver-like mechanical arm, whereas the one we already have, has a black one. If the Green TJ would come with a silver arm and silver attachments, wouldn't it be awkward to have silver attachments on the black arm and vice versa? Oh well, perhaps they don't need to be interchangeable at all... (regular with green TJ, I mean).

They could just offer repaints of them in black in a future Weapons Pak. Roboto's gun, axe, and claw were redone in black for use with Trap Jaw, so the same thing could be done here.

I think including some brand new attachments with Green Trap Jaw would be a great incentive to encourage more people to buy him, especially since the only weapon we saw him use in the minicomic was his lasertron.

I'm all for this, but Skeletor needs to have a different pair of feet as well !!!

Agreed. His robotic arm needs to be resculpted and then they can use stock human legs and furry boots. This would be a good quarterly variant, I think, not just a missed opportunity now that the MOTU vs DCU two-packs are gone. If they can afford to sculpt a new head for BG Evil Lyn and Keldor they can afford a new arm for Trap Jaw (and a couple of unique attachments that match the boxy style of the robotic arm).

I think so too. Normal human legs with furry boots and loin cloth would cost them NOTHING. All they would need to do is sculpt a new bionic arm with attachments and a new head. Great for a quarterly variant.

- furry shorts
- He-Man legs and boots
- human left arm with new bracer
- Ram symbol belt - not skull and crossbones
- box-style arm-canon (non-removable - there is no evidence in the mini-comics that green Trap Jaw could replace his laser canon with hook or claw)
- new head with ear protrusions and a more organic-style jaw that connects to his neck.

There is a bit of discussion and mock ups of this character in the following thread:

As has been noted, green Trap Jaw done properly is not a straight repaint.

I'd like a green TJ, but I don't think it needs to go that far. The He-man buck with a new gun arm, belt, and the existing TJ head would suffice personally.

As a fan of the Minicomics, from what's left, Green TJ isn't top of my list, but it is very high up there. I'd like a proper Alcala Skeletor (Human feet and bare [no fins, no wristbands] arms, yellow painted skull, along with an Alcala Power Sword) and a Red Beastman more.
